A PSA 10 currently sells for about £142.93, raw the card sits at £3.67 — 38,9× as much. Of 1.430 copies already graded, 35 % received a 10 and 41 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £67.28 on average, before fees and shipping. Rule of thumb: submit when the value at a realistic grade is at least double the raw value — which is the case here. Centering decides it: an off-centre card will not get a 10. The grade distribution comes from the PSA Population Report; people pre-sort before submitting, so your own hit rate may differ.

Across 11 auctions the median was £2.41, across 41 fixed-price sales £3.73. Fixed price therefore fetched about 55 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £2.67 and £4.49, with a median of £3.64. Selling fast lands you nearer the lower end; with patience, good photos and a complete title the upper end is achievable.

The cheapest genuine sales were around £1.96. Offers well below £1.17 are typically fakes, mislabelled cards or a different variant — ask for photos of all four borders and a close-up of the surface.

From real sales: English £3.59 (200), German £3.32 (11). The difference is small — language barely matters here.

lastsold uses only real sales — eBay plus auction houses like Goldin & Fanatics — recent sales count more (recency weighting), outliers and fakes are removed. It's not an estimate but actual sold prices, separated by condition, language and grading.
